Thibs is allowing our bigs to lose this game for us. The guys most detrimental to us are the ones he's sticking with as the house is burning. Insane.

Randle was way better than KAT this time around in the playoffs.. not even close


A smart head coach would have KAT get the ball below the free throw line to collapse the opposing team's defense, Thibodeau on the other hand has his center creating for himself from behind the 3 point line. :lol:

This...where do you go from here? How do you improve? No picks, no cap...just stuck being 3rd or 4th seed and 2nd round fodder.

They want players and picks that the knicks do not have.

That's what I'm wondering. Towns is having a rough game. But you can't tell me the Celtics have never fouled him at all?

How long of a momentum shift does Thibs have to witness before calling time?

It is absolute Bull crap how the NBA punishes the BIG from beating the hell out of a small if they guard them in the paint. I'm sorry but if you put a 6'1 guy on a 7 footer, you deserve to get destroyed. Back in the day that was death. If you were a guard trying to body Shaq in the paint, you were a corpse. Today they punished you from mowing them down. Just completely hinders a bigs size and rewards teams for being cheap and putting a shrimp out there. Post game today has been killed by rules like this.

At the same time, a small can pull out a knife and stab a big with it and they wont call it. BS

Underrated thing is that Thibs doesn't adjust and they changed the roster ... KAT and Bridges bear blame but also Thibs can't change and adapt

BOS is 8-31 from 3. And we’re down 20.

Worst KAT game I’ve ever seen doesn’t help
